How does your game fit the theme?
It matches the theme with the objects re-scaling themselves when they go through dimensions and using that mechanic to solve puzzle. It is also on aesthetics with our sense of scale getting put to the test with recursive dimensions contained within dimensions themselves.

Died 2021 born 2024 welcome back Patrick's Parabox

All jokes aside this was a pretty simple game. The dimentional box was kinda cool and the levels aren't so complicated. The fact that you can only throw boxes and not drop them is kinda bad and makes some levels harder than they look however.

Super cute visuals, animations and music! Really nice game :)

Neat game, little bit janky, usually with throwable objects getting stuck in walls and forcing a restart, or just not wanting to go into other dimensions. Could definitely see this getting fleshed out further!

A fun puzzle game, tho some parts of it felt a bit janky due to collision not always being cool with big objects. Overall a really great entry with a cool interpretation of the theme.

The game has a very cool concept, though the puzzles in the later levels proved too difficult for me to solve. Still, I loved playing the game.

Super cute. Wasn't expecting recursive dimensional gameplay. Was delighted :)

Very nice! The end screen is pretty cute as well


One minor thing though is it seems possible to cheese some levels by picking up objects you're standing on and abusing coyote time

Apparently I am a sort of cat who's not very good at jumping. Oh well...

Really fun game, the level in a level aspect is really mind bending. Great job

Very cool, that 3rd puzzle was a real mind bender, super cool use of the theme

Can't argue against cat in box. Very nice :D

Seems simple at first and then you have to grow tree time a box with recursive dimention. :D

Ohhh a fellow Godot user who has a cat in the game. Hi :D

I like this type of simple puzzler. Nicely done!

Note: I got stuck almost every time I threw in stuff from the higher dimension. Is it just me?

This was really creative. It gave me Patrick's Parabox vibes but as a platformer. I especially found it cool that you could throw levels themself around and if they landed on the side and you go in them, everything else on the outside is showing at the appropriate orientation. Great work!

Bad controls and basic visuals. You might have a game here if you keep the mechanics and gut everything else.

I'm a simple man. I see cat, I rate 5/5.
